🎇What sparked your journey into yoga and how has it transformed your life both on and off the mat?🎇
From the vibrant streets of San Juan, Puerto Rico, to the heart of Dallas, TX, my journey has been a dance between culture and self-discovery. 🎶✨ As a teenager in Dallas, I yearned to reconnect with movement and my roots, leading me to a magical encounter with Zumba at MoveStudio.
Witnessing the transformative power of dance, I embarked on a holistic healing journey. Struggling with anxiety and depression, yoga entered my life as a prescription from my doctor. Little did I know that the stillness and peace of savasana would become my sanctuary, sparking an emotional release that forever changed me.
In 2014, a 200-hour Yoga Certification in Hatha and Ta**ra marked a turning point. Yoga wasn't just a practice—it became my passion. Teaching others, I witnessed lives transform through the union of mind and body, breath, and movement.
My personal battles deepened my yoga connection, revealing that it's more than physical health; it's about finding inner peace and love. Yoga became my mission, emphasizing balance, self-love, and inner strength.
🌎If you could guide a class anywhere in the world, where would it be and why? 🌍
If I could guide a class anywhere, it would be back home in Puerto Rico, by the Escambron beach, near "the Old San Juan." Surrounded by history, palm trees, and the vast ocean, this breathtaking view embodies our culture and my roots. It's a dream to share the practice in this sacred space.🌊
🧘♀️What's your signature yoga pose or sequence that you love to incorporate into your classes? 🧘♂️
Lately, my focus has been on heart-opening poses, like assisted fish pose with a bolster. Starting my day with this posture connects me with my heart, asking, "What would 'LOVE' have me do today?" This nurturing practice serves as a reminder to return to my heart amid moments of stress or fear. 💖🙏
